Ralts -- Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Ralts from the Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Set. Ralts is a basic, psychic type Pokemon card with an hp of 60. It has a x2 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Ralts does not have an Ability and it only has one move. The only move that this card has is called Mind Bend, for two energy cards, one each of psychic and colorless, this move does 10 damage, plus if you get a heads when you flip a coin, the defending Pokemon is confused.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Ralts is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Kirlia and a stage 2 evolution in Gardevoir, which I'll be reviewing the next few days/weeks, I would recommend using Ralts with its evolutions. However, since I haven't reviewed those cards yet, I'll just act as though I plan on using this card without its evolutions. So on its own, I would not use this card as a starter type Pokemon in a psychic type deck or in any deck for that matter. Because this card can only do 10 damage total it is quite restricted on what it can do, plus the move that only does 10 damage requires two energy cards which makes the move below average. So I would not use this card in a deck on its own, if you choose to, don't use more than 1, try to use this card early in the game and use Mind Bend.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating. In my opinion, this is a below average basic Pokemon card. I do like that this card has a low retreat cost, average hp, and the only move it does have not only does damage but inflicts a special condition, possibly. But this card is below average for me because it only has one move, the move isn't slow, and it is a below average move in my opinion.
